A new study by Cisco suggests that "Global IP traffic will quintuple from 2008 to 2013". All the signs point to one question - Is your network bandwidth utilized for better or worse! . Are the business critical applications getting enough bandwidth?! There comes a time, sooner or later (preferably sooner), enterprises need to put a limit on their bandwidth utilization and thus the costs accompanying it.

Some of the points of "concern" for enterprises would be:

• Internet video is now approximately one-third of all consumer Internet traffic
• In 2013, the Internet will be nearly four times larger than it is in 2009
• Peer-to-peer (P2P) is growing in volume

Considering the growth of the internet, the increase in video traffic and P2P volume, its not a surprise that enterprises find it harder to keep a tab on the volume of traffic and the different applications that traversing their network. Of course the task is humongous and difficult, but "A task is difficult only till the day you find a solution". Today is the day and there is a solution that can do a lot.

ManageEngine NetFlow Analyzer helps you monitor bandwidth, analyze network traffic and do network forensics. It keeps you informed if the business critical applications are getting enough bandwidth, if not then why. You can view the top talkers, applications, sources and destinations in your network. Reports can be exported, scheduled and threshold violation alerts can be set. 

To mention a few of the "lot":

• Network Bandwidth Monitoring
• Faster Network Troubleshooting
• Site to site traffic monitoring
• Application Performance Optimization
• Department wise bandwidth monitoring
• Validate your QoS policies
